A document database system or document management system which include an internal rich text editor that works on PHP, using MySQL database as backend.
DocBase is guided by two simple principles:
- Keep all documents in one place, to make them accessible anywhere, anytime.
- Keep document creation and/or updating very simple and with as few required steps as possible.
Supported/Tested platforms:
- Server side: Apache/PHP/MySQL on UNIX (never tested on Windows but it's in the plan).
- Client side: Microsoft Internet Explorer v5.5+. The rich text editor doesn't work at all with Netscape or Mozilla.
For now, the DocBase application server has been tested on a UNIX host (HP-UX) with Apache/PHP/MySQL./p>
For client side, only Microsoft Explorer 5.5 and higher works for the rich text editor
How it works in summary:
- All documents are created into the DocBase application itself by using the internal rich text editor.
- A document can be released or unreleased. All new/modified documents go in the unreleased list until you release them by using the button.
- Each document release is a document by itself. The system keeps all versions of a document so you can see the changes over time.
- A release document is only a document with a version, given at release time.
- You can insert pictures, attach any kind of files or create internal DocBase document hyperlinks (references to other DocBase documents).
- At release of a document, an email is sent to a defined address in HTML format.
- Documents are classified in group/subgroup organization.
- A document is locked at editing time to prevent two people from making conflicting simultaneous edits.
- You can filter, sort and search across all documents
- All documents are written in HTML.
- All documents, pictures and inserted documents are stored in MySQL database.
